Going to University

On a bright Spring morning (22 April 2021) a Class 323 EMU (323210) of West Midlands Railway heads south at Church Road Tunnel on the Cross-City line, next stop being University. This particular working was 2R20, the Four Oaks (1016 hrs) to Redditch service. Note the impressive brick arches in the retaining wall on the west side of the line. To the right is the Worcester and Birmingham Canal.

 

2021 represents a significant milestone in the history of the Phoenix Railway-Photographic Circle with the celebration of our 50th anniversary by publishing a book to showcase some of the members work, past and present, from 1971 to the present day. The book contains 14 chapters and 144 pages of photographs depicting the work of over 50 accomplished railway photographers with many differing styles and approaches. It takes an alternative view on photographing the railway scene over the past 50 years. The book, called 50 Years of Phoenix will be published on 14th May 2021 with pre-orders now being taken – click on this link to order your copy: www.mortonsbooks.co.uk/product/view/productCode/15554
